A Lonely heart



















( image taken from google images)


A lonely heart once said, " I am scared to come out of my shell",
"Lest I don't find a place to dwell".
But,her mates, cajoled her and said, " fly thee my lass",
"Find your mate, else your life will just pass".

She  flew over the nether land , and came onto this sparkling earth, 
Were she searched for another who was worth.
She knocked on the doors of many,
Yet could not find one that she could accompany.

Forlorn, she spread her wings ready to fly,
When she fluttered and let out a soft sigh.
She felt someone touch her gently,
Turning she looked into guileless eyes staring at her intently.

He held out his hand and she trustingly gave hers,
Not knowing that one day his lips would slew forth slurs.
But, until then they grew, intertwined in the bloom of love,
Which held them together like a tight glove.

But, alas! the wheels of time bought in its wake,
misunderstandings, judgements and heart  aches.
What she believed would be abiding and true,
Ended all too quickly when he bid her adieu.

She cajoled, screamed, pleaded in vain,
"Stay with me ", she cried in pain.
But, without a back ward glance he withdrew,
Leaving her shattered,  cold and blue.

Picking up the pieces of her broken heart,
She decided to make a fresh start.
With steely eyed determination she flew away,
Smiling and refusing to whittle away.
